    Top craftsmanship earning a livable wage is pretty much equal in cost to quality materials, if not more. Even on the low end for $400 jeans, I'd wager it's $150+ in costs. Don't forget shipping, storing, marketing, all of this counts as a cost too. You don't just get to buy the materials in a certain shape, you're paying for the -business- and it's -profits-.

    Wife and I had a dnd/board games night with 2 other couples on Tuesday nights. It was basically an excuse for a small dinner party. One member of each couple would be responsible for meals every six weeks. Everyone would bring new craft beers, shit they like or bottles of wine. We'd play dnd, board games or just hang out for a few hours then stumble home. The goal wasn't to get shit faced obviously, but to leave in a very good mood. Sunday roasts, bbqs and picnics fill out the rest.

    I know a guy that did it a decade ago. It's generally low maintenance, but there are bursts of work.

    Main thing I remember, is if you decide to get a comb foundation, you want to go with smaller cell sizes. Larger ones may get better honey yields, but create an environment that make it easier for varroa mites to infest a hive.

    i am stressed y'all

    we gotta get this loan assumption approved and closed pronto -- in time for me to find new installment credit such that i can whip up $92k before end of January

    i'll either make this work and my life will be great and free of prior burden.. or i'll come up short, become homeless, maybe jump off a bridge. i suppose a thing that's truly exciting is also nerve-wracking as fuck
